Steve Cohen actually said...

"Elijah's presence, passion, and moral clarity will be missed. My heart goes out to his family, his constituents, and to all of us who will miss him so very, very deeply."

"we are saddened greatly by the loss of a great American, great congressperson, but a great American and human being in Elijah Cummings"

"He personally meant to me a great competitor, a great fighter for what he believed in and the people he fought for, but also would be one that also could reach across the aisle."

"I thank our witnesses and our Members for being here today, and particularly Congressman Sewell for her sponsorship and her long work on this effort."
